Symptom:
RKE FOB BATTERY LOW
When Monitored and Set Condition:
RKE FOB BATTERY LOW
When Monitored: Upon activation of any button on the Remote Keyless Entry transmit-
ter (fob).
Set Condition: The RKE module monitors the input from the fobs and determines if the
voltage is within tolerance. If the battery voltage of the RKE fob falls between 2.0 and 3.5
volts the RKE module will communicates this to the Instrument Cluster which in turn will
set this code.
